Use your best judgement and hope for the best.

They are in Oakland, that's for sure. They steal literally everything in that city. Someone stole the center caps off my buddy's stock wheels for his '01 Tacoma. They're worth what, 5 bucks total?
My dad was sleeping in the bed of his Tacoma (with a shell) at a truck stop and he woke up to someone cutting his cat converter off, luckily he scared them away before they got it completely off but he had to drive home with straight pipes. They target trucks and lifted vehicles because they can just crawl under and have quick access.
Every time I leave my car around there, I just expect to come back to broken windows and a mess. I take alternative transit when it's at all possible. OAK airport is only marginally safer than the city streets.
Even if they don't steal anything, I've seen crackheads just run down the street with a pipe smashing windows on every car as they go.
